Patrick Miles
Chairman & CEO at Alphatec Spine.
Patent №: 11998242 (June 4, 2024) – Systems and methods for planning, performing, and assessing spinal correction during surgery.
A surgical system includes a control unit that obtains horizontal pelvic and shoulder lines, central sacral and orthogonal midlines, compares these lines, determines the angle between the pelvic and shoulder lines, and converts this angle to a patient position.
Kevin A Shelby
Mr. Shelby holds an M.S. from Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, and a B.S. from North Carolina A&T State Univ., Greensboro, NC, both in electrical engineering.
Mr. Shelby’s responsibilities at Coherent Logix include engineering technical lead for software defined radio with hands-on involvement in algorithm development, system design, design verification, and select tool enhancements. He has extensive experience in broadband communications, wireless networking, and terrestrial broadcast, with specific application to real-time, software defined radio implementation.
Patent №: 12003981 (June 4, 2024) – Parameterized radio waveform techniques for operating in multiple wireless environments. Techniques for operating a wireless network in various radio environments are disclosed. An apparatus receives a parameter set suitable for a specific environment, like a certain mobility level or transmission range. It reconfigures to receive broadcasts from another transmitter using a different parameter set for another environment. These parameter sets determine subcarrier spacing and cyclic prefix size.
Larry Joseph Koudele
Principle Engineer (Memory Architecture Group)Principle Engineer (Memory Architecture Group)Micron Technology (retired)
Patent №: 12001286 (June 4, 2024) – Memory device with dynamic processing level calibration.
A system includes a memory array and a processing device. The processing device iteratively adjusts an active processing level by determining read results at the active level and an offset level, then incrementally adjusting the active level based on comparing these results.
Jacques J Orban
Mr. Orban is involved in the engineering of a small wind-turbine. The main characteristics would be high performance, easy installation and maintenance for a low cost.
Previously Technical Advisor at SLB.
Patent №: 12000236 (June 4, 2024) – Cement mixer and multiple purpose pumper (CMMP) for land rig. Embodiments provide a pump assembly with a first pump that has two inlets for delivering different fluids and two discharges for outputting these fluids at different pressures. The discharges are isolated from each other.
Butrus Thomas Khuri-Yakub
Butrus (Pierre) T. Khuri-Yakub is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University. He received the BS degree from the American University of Beirut, the MS degree from Dartmouth College, and the Ph.D. degree from Stanford University, all in electrical engineering.
His current research interests include medical ultrasound imaging and therapy, ultrasound neuro-stimulation, chemical/biological sensors, gas flow and energy flow sensing, micromachined ultrasonic transducers, and ultrasonic fluid ejectors.
He was awarded the Medal of the City of Bordeaux in 1983 for his contributions to Nondestructive Evaluation, the Distinguished Advisor Award of the School of Engineering at Stanford University in 1987, the Distinguished Lecturer Award of the IEEE UFFC society in 1999, a Stanford University Outstanding Inventor Award in 2004, Distinguished Alumnus Award of the School of Engineering of the American University of Beirut in 2005, Stanford Biodesign Certificate of Appreciation for commitment to educate, mentor and inspire Biodesgin Fellows, 2011, and 2011 recipient of IEEE Rayleigh award.
Patent №: 11998766 (June 4, 2024) – Medical device with CMUT array and solid state cooling, and associated methods and systems. A medical device includes a CMUT array to emit ultrasound to target tissue and a thermoelectric cooler to cool non-target tissue heated by the ultrasound. It can be implemented in a catheter with a thermal conductor to dissipate heat. A catheter or sleeve has a tubular wall for insertion into a body channel and a thermoelectric cooler to cool the channel wal
Kentaro Okuyama
Senior Distinguished Researcher at Japan Display Inc.
Patent №: 12001048 (June 4, 2024) – Display device.
A display device includes a first transparent substrate with a main surface, a second transparent substrate with an end portion, and a liquid crystal layer containing strip-shaped polymers and liquid crystal molecules.
Kumaran Vijayasankar
Senior Software R&D Manager, Connectivity BU, Texas Instruments.
Wireless embedded systems expert with experience in designing, developing and validating embedded systems. Leading systems and test team focusing on ensuring best-in-class SW quality and optimal performance of TI-embedded wireless SW solutions.
Patent №: 12003271 (June 4, 2024) – Sleepy device operation in asynchronous channel hopping networks. A radio communications device includes an RTC that runs during sleep to receive an asynchronous hopping sequence (AHS) frame from a coordinator node (CN) in a WPAN. A processor runs an algorithm to determine a timestamp for the AHS frame and the CN’s initial timing in the hopping sequence, stores the timestamp, and changes the Rx channel frequency upon waking.
